HTTP - The primary channel for management. The HTTP interface comprises a Web
Console and a REST API.

AMQP - The AMQP protocols 0-8..0-10 allow for some management of Exchanges, Queue and
Bindings. This will be superseded by AMQP 1.0 Management. It is suggested that new users
favour the Management facilities provided by the Web Console/REST API.

6.1. HTTP Management

6.1.1. Introduction

The HTTP Management plugin provides a HTTP based API for monitoring and control of the
Broker. The plugin actually provides two interfaces:

The Web Management Console itself uses the REST API, so every function you can perform
through the Web Management Console can be also be scripted and integrated into other
systems. This provides a simple integration point allowing the Broker to monitored and
controlled from systems such as Naoios or BMC Control-M.

6.1.2. Default Configuration

By default, the Broker is shipped with HTTP enabled running port 8080. The HTTP plugin
is configured to require SASL authentication. The port is not SSL protected.

The settings can be changed by configuring the HTTP plugin and/or the port configured
to serve HTTP.
